Website Terms


I apologize for the following long winded crap. Personally I sneer at this kind of formality but I have been advised to put this here anyway because there are some circumstances that arise that are totally unforeseeable. Please try to refrain from giggling and proceed in a serious manner ... Chris Kinman.
